Overview

Schlauderaff is not a very athletic guard, but he always seems to get the job done. He is a well prepared player that never seems to be out of position. He plays with a "bad attitude" and fights through the whistle. He can be an effective run blocker, but he loses leverage at times and plays with a narrow base too often. His slow first step and limited athleticism may prevent him from being a starter at the next level, but his toughness and work ethic will likely get him a spot on an NFL roster. Schlauderaff should come off the board on the third day of the draft.

Strengths

Schlauderaff is a heady player that recognizes defensive tendencies and adjusts accordingly. Uses hands to get inside defenders and is strong enough to thwart the bull rush and generate a good push in the running game. Plays mean and looks to punish opponents on every play.

Weaknesses

Lacks the athleticism needed to block bigger faster players at the next level. Slow first step prevents him from consistently getting into position and limits his ability to pull and trap. Does not show the ability to deliver a violent punch to knock defenders on their heels. Needs to add more bulk.
